在这篇文章中，英国政府部门职权和头衔的改变为反思数字技术在英国文化政策重新想象中日益增长的作用提供了一个起点。更名为DCMS的早期战略报告名为《文化就是数字》。这份报告将英国的文化和技术部门确定为“终极权力夫妻”，引导文化部门利用技术加强公众参与，并通过发展与科技公司的合作来提高技术技能。反思DCMS在英国文化政策制定中的地位，并基于对本报告和相关战略文件的分析，包括针对Covid大流行的回应和更新，本文分析了有关文化与数字之间的脱节及其对英国国家文化政策地位的影响的说法。
ABSTRACT In this paper, a change to the remit and title of a UK government department provides a starting point for reflection on the growing role of digital technologies in the re-imagination of UK cultural policy. An early strategic report produced by the re-named DCMS was entitled Culture is Digital. Identifying the UK’s cultural and technology sectors as ‘the ultimate power couple,’ this report directs the cultural sector towards the use of technology to enhance public engagement and to improve technical skills through the development of collaborations with technology companies. Reflecting on the place of DCMS in UK cultural policymaking and drawing on analysis of this report and associated strategic documents, including responses and updates produced in the light of the Covid pandemic, the paper analyses the claims made about the elision between culture and the digital and their consequences for the status of cultural policy within the British state.
